GID reveals confessions of Fuheis terrorists

Amman, The General Intelligence Department (GID) has uncovered the confessions of terrorists who were arrested in the joint gendarmerie and police raid last month in the city of Salt, northwest of Amman.

The investigations revealed that the terrorist cell was intending to carry out a series of operations across the Kingdom just after the Fuheis attack, which resulted in the death of a number of security officers.

The cell was targeting police stations and patrols, as well as civilians, however, the plot was detected in its early stages by the GID and other security services.

Probes showed that the terrorists had recently embraced the takfiri ideology promoted by the Daesh terror group.
